See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €67,000 (€788/m²), this is above local sub-€100k apartment levels; assuming habitable condition, the effective cost is about €988/m² after modest works. The practical layout, 15 m² cellar and possible garage add value, but the listing does not state the property’s condition or energy performance.
More on the house and the area
This is a solid, roofed and apparently usable 85 sqm apartment with clean interiors, tiled floors, heating radiators, a cellar and possible garage access. It is practical rather than dreamy: the building and surroundings are ordinary, there is no notable view or historic character, and the kitchen will need fitting out before comfortable move-in.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €200/m². There is no published price band below €350/m², so the range is that figure widened by the spread of the lightest band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€6,000 – €9,000
Wiring, water and sanitary work of any kind, heating, air conditioning and gas go to a registered firm by law, and so do flues and the air openings for gas appliances. That labour stays in the bill. Yours is the stripping out, plaster, paint, floors, tiling and carpentry.
Labour is 61% of a renovation price on average and 67% at the median, across 191 items of the Emilia-Romagna 2025 public price list. Materials are the rest. An averaged price list, not a quote.
Materials you buy yourself carry 22% VAT; supplied by the firm doing the work they go at the 10% renovation rate. On a €30,000 materials bill that is €3,600 of extra tax.
Household wiring installed before 13 March 1990 counts as compliant if it has a main breaker with overcurrent protection, protection against direct contact and a 30 mA RCD. Having a firm bring the existing wiring up to that and certify it is the cheapest lawful route.
- The kitchen appears unfinished or stripped, with plumbing and connections visible but no cabinets or appliances.
- No attractive view or distinctive historic character is shown; the setting is a dense, ordinary urban neighborhood.
- The bathroom is not clearly shown in the gallery, so its actual condition should be verified.
Estimate from the listing and its photos, not a survey. Treat it as the starting point for your own quotes. An Italian builder's quote is normally written without VAT and without design fees, so add about a quarter to any figure a firm gives you.
The area around
Location score 38/100This is flat rice-country on the western Novara plain, between the Sesia and Ticino river systems, with a landscape of paddies, irrigation canals, farmsteads and long straight roads. The Sesia runs a few kilometres west of Vinzaglio, and the Cavour Canal crosses this part of the plain. The nearest larger towns are Novara and Vercelli, both with full services and rail links. The area is known for rice cultivation in the Bassa Novarese and Vercellese.
